I’m gonna poke in here and say a good waterchange schedule will suffice. Folks tend to make things complicated.

I did do a 15% water change a few days before the test. I also dosed a little cheato gro for about 2 weeks which probably explains the slightly elevated zinc?

I’ve been religiously doing a 15% weekly water change ever since I got my ICP results (I’m not sure if I did the 15% weekly water changes before the ICP). It was somewhere around August that I started.


I think I should do another ICP to see how things look after my consistent weekly changes. That sounds like a good idea.
